    Got the email about the interview for Painting and Printmaking on thursday, and was one of the first to interview yesterday...now to wait until april for a reply.
    If anyone has any qs about SEA or P+P interviews feel free to ask. I had interviews for both, and the painting one felt like it went for better than sea:/
    Hey! I have an interview for Painting and Printmaking
    Did you have your work in sleeves?

    If it's of any use to you, as a way of judging the time scale here, two years ago my son got a rejection from GSA at the start of the Easter holidays, following an interview in February.

    I didn't, just all mounted onto A1 cartridge paper. I think it's best not to so that they can see the work in its true light, especially for p+p

    They usually request that you don't.

    has anyone considered phoning them, just to make sure we're still on the list? I've emailed them a while back, but nothing...

    If you haven't heard you are still being considered. I had an interview at SEA and the head said MAC had a meltdown with their servers which postponed decisions...

    Who had their interview with SEA department?

    Sorry about the decline! Im literally a bag of nerves now that everyones starting to hear back. I heard today that they like if you have some sort of personal connection to your work. I made it very clear that I take a lot of my inspiration from queer culture...so I'm praying they are impressed enough to take me on haha.

    Good luck to everyone else thats waiting!

    GSA have definitely started answering now, this girl I know who went to an interview with them about 2 weeks ago just told me she got rejected (applied for fashion). So everyone who didn't get a rejection yet should just wait patiently to get accepted! (as I assume they're sending out the bad news first)
